Another report was filed today for the upcoming Green Lantern movie. The film's production team, currently filming in New Orleans, will be closing off several streets tonight to shoot an Earth-based scene featuring the fear entity Parallax and Krona.

Krona is best known as the Oan scientist who single-handedly (and inadvertently) created DC's Multiverse, an infinite number of parallel universes that each contains a replicated variant of the DC Universe. This included the creation of the Anti-Matter Universe which unleashed an onslaught of evil into the cosmos, thus creating the Monitor and the Anti-Monitor. It was this event that caused the species to become Guardians of the Universe.

According to ComicBookMovie.com, it's currently unknown what role Krona will be playing in Green Lantern, but the possibilities are certainly intriguing. Could the film's creators be planning to conjoin DC's other superhero properties into one film universe, following in the footsteps of Marvel's upcoming epic The Avengers? Or perhaps this could be an opportunity to explain the franchise's multiple continuities not unlike what J.J. Abrams did with Star Trek. Only time will tell.
